Welcome To Bards Against Hunger

Bards Against Hunger

Welcome to the online home of the Bards Against Hunger national project. In 2013 a poetry group on Long Island, NY decided to host a poetry reading to gather food for a local food bank. The poets who attended like the idea so much that we turned it into an annual event. As the tradition continued, the idea spread to other poetry groups and states. And it keeps growing with each passing year!
